[PATCH][RFC] x86,lib: Add wbinvd_on_many_cpus helpers

[PATCH][RFC] x86,lib: Add wbinvd_on_many_cpus helpers

[Li RongQing]

wbinvd_on_many_cpus will call smp_call_function_many(), which should
be more efficient that iterating cpus since it would run wbinvd()
concurrently locally and remotely

it can be used by the below patch

The two patches should be submitted together within the same series.
